Rodeway Inn - choice Hotels Rodeway Inn Assigned us a smoking room when the reservation called for non-smoking. SUch reservation was made 2 months in advance of arrival. Kittanning, Pennsylvania

Upon arrival at the  Rodeway Inn at  Kittaning, PA and securing the  key my wife and I proceeded to our  room. Our room was  located around back on the upper level of the motel. When approaching the door we sensed we had a surprise waiting inside. The outside appearence was one of utter disgusting  filth and upon opening the door the  room fell into view and was an even more  disgusting. An ashtray full of  cigarette butts was sitting on the dresser. The stench of filth made  one want to gag. The ceiling was moldy and paint was off due to a roof leak. The  bathroom light  fixture was broken. Some lights did not work. Paneling was falling off one wall. The  door to the adjoining  room was falling apart with the  knob falling out. Carpeting was filthy. Even with shoes on we were uncomfortable in the  room. On examing the bed covers, which were filthy, we observed five or  six cigarette burn holes. When i mentioned the  burn holes to the  desk clerk  her  response was "well it is a smoking room." She also said if you had made your reservations with  me  directly, rather than through Choice hotels it would  have  been different -- HUH!!!!

The pictures  displayed on the web page  for this motel in no way resemble what we encountered. This  place needs to be shuttered. I would not allow my  dog, cat, goat, cow, chicken or any other  living breathing animal to stay in such filth.

At our class reunion the  following day we spoke with others who had a similar  eexperience with this place. My advice would be to all: Avoid this place until such time as it is cleaned up.
